Primary chain adjustment
So I think I'm doing something wrong. I'm trying to adjust the primary chain tension on my 08 heritage but this looks nothing like the pics I see in the tutorials I saw online. Any help or advice wood be appreciated.

Nothing to adjust, that's self adjusting, may even be a hydraulic.

The photo is of the balancer assembly, not the primary.

If no access panel in the primary cover, no adjustment available.

Lol. The adjustment is under the head gaskets.

Finally a serious response, thanks. I'll check under the head gasket tonight.

You don't have to go that far! I adjusted mine right under the rocker box gasket. Then realized all the problem was a bad front caliper.!

Y'all are all wrong. Clearly, the problem is that he is low on blinker fluid!
